As with the other catastrophes produced by capitalism—poverty and
mounting social inequality, fascism and attacks on democratic rights,
and the growing threat of imperialist
war—climate change is a class question whose solution requires the
conscious political mobilization of workers in every country. Only
through the world socialist revolution, which makes possible the
organization of production on a global scale, scientifically planned and
democratically controlled, can humanity gain full and unfettered access
to the scientific, technological and creative capacities needed to
arrest and reverse the unfolding environmental catastrophe.
